How do you remove the external handle of the Audi A3?

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Handle

The removal of the external handle of the Audi A3 is done by opening the door, so that access to its side screw can be obtained: this must therefore be completely removed. Then proceed by loosening all the screws that fix the door panel to its housing: by also removing the panel, the screws that fix the door actuator mechanism from the inside can be identified. By removing this mechanism, it will be possible to remove the handle from its housing, replacing it with a new one and then verifying that everything works correctly.
